All in all, this only proves that at least one semi-influential handful of people at GoDaddy are idiots. Given its size, that's hardly surprising - one would hope there are also some semi-influential handfuls of bright sparks, and that seems to be the case, too. Still, it's not like it's not archived at the canonical place - http://lists.grok.org.uk/pipermail/full-disclosure/2007-January/051792.html - and a couple hundred others, too. Some idiot should probably be familiarized with the concept of a mailing list, and that some people put the messages on the web. Joachim
